alright ill tell you everything you need to know. My wii is a LU64 and when i got it i immediately downgraded successfully to 3.2 from 4.0...... i installed backup launcher and such and had fun with it.

But i wanted to update again because i got back into the wii scene so i followed Dogeggs guide to make it a virgin so i could uninstall most the crap i did to it, then after i got done with the guide i updated to 4.2 installed HBC and was installing trucha 1.1 but during the ios deletion step i just deleted all the +200 ios'

me being the person i am i HAD to get them back so i used anyregionchanger and successfully got to 3.2(because i read that if you downgrade then upgrade you get all the original ios' again) BUT then i used the 4.1 updater and my wii is now bricked......

NO PRELOADER OR BOOTMII ..... i hadnt gotten to it yet also i tryed SaveMiiFrii but i didnt work so yea any ides will help(before you post comments on how stupid i am dont i already know)

Also i was wondering if i could just switch mobos with a non LU64 wii so mine wont be an LU64 anymore(if i doesnt work tell me)

You can swap motherboards but it won't be cheap. The amount of System Menu changes you did would scare me if I were doing it and I have bootmii/boot2. I don't think even jamieupanddown would be so brave.

Oh and savemii/frii was pretty much your only hope.

thanks for the info,but if savemiifrii didnt work does that mean the real thing wont work?
and also will a burnt autoboot disc work or does it have to be a real game ?

If savemiifrii did not work neither will savemii, and without that working you can not autoboot a disk. Everything I have ever read about lu64 has said very clearly, not to downgrade.

Sure, you can buy an infectious chip and do some soldering around the nand, then you could flash the nand.
